Because of gravity and other factors, the changes in your neck are related to changes in your face. Perhaps facelifts are misnamed, because most facelifts affect the neck as much as the face.
By lifting the lower face, we diminish the jowls and tighten under the chin. If you have vertical bands in your neck, I will tighten them and will lift the neck itself, restoring some of the smooth firm look you want to have. If needed, I'll suction or remove fat from under your chin.
As I stated before, each person's features are unique and the effects of aging are different for all of us. Therefore, my approach to your surgery will differ from the patient in the next exam room, even though you came for similar reasons.
In about two weeks, you'll recover from your neck surgery and you'll notice how much more confident you feel about your appearance.
